When the drain tube connects to the block, the galley in the block is subject to the same size/flow constraints as your drain tube.
I would not use the vac pump drain.
There should be some photos on here somewhere of people using the oil pump cover for a drain.
Have you considered other possibilities like the push rod cover, or straight into the sump?
Do you have the cover plate on your block where the factory turbo motors drain into? (that's what I used)
checkout this thread 4BD1T - set for oil drain etc

I think McBrain was referring to the vac pump oil drain on the NA block which goes straight into the block, not via the dipstick tube.

Interesting as the one I'm working on has the vac pump drain into the dip stick..I think it a later version which also has a different oil pump/cover arrangement to some..so I was told.

Mmm🙄

Is that motor in a 4x4 perentie?
On the 6x6 motor I have the vac pump drains into the dipstick tube... but in my 4x4 it has a banjo bolt into the block...

Yes 4x4 Perentie

Ah, is that a FFR or SRV-SF perentie with the 24V alternator?

FFR with 24v gen/power station which has been rotated 180 degs to move output cable to underneath ie away from dump pipe.

Looks great nice work!

Now that is what you call a "dump pipe"

Ooops..pic went sideways.

Td5 rad plus 2A i/cooler in front with shaped original shroud and booty fabbed cap on top aka a recycled fluoro light cover..with GU Patrol fan unit with adjusted mounting holes and 10mm trimmed blades.

Works really well😚

Sometimes I surprise myself!!!
